The rain gear provided by Sun Mountain Sports could not keep the members of the US Ryder Cup team dry enough, when a downpour fell in Wales. After 2 hours of playing in the rain, the team had had enough.
To keep dry, the team had to ditch the gear in favor of other rain gear that was purchased in the merchandise tent. Unfortunately the new gear had the European Ryder Cup logo on it.
Sun Mountain has been designing and selling outerwear for over 20 years. They have given rain gear to over 3,000 PGA professionals and over 150 players on the tour. They currently have people working with the PGA to resolve the issue. Sun Mountain no doubt is a good company. This may have simply been a common mistake, or perhaps provided the team with faulty outfits.
